• “I loved it. This is the tale of unrequited love, or is it love that exists on both sides but never seems to come together? Either way, this is a beautifully story. It reads like a lengthy letter written by Judith to the love of her life, Elliot.”

• “I adored this story that spans the entire length of Judith's love for Elliot from fifth grade to the present day. While Judith is very clearly flawed by her self-proclaimed addiction to Elliot, she remains pragmatic and entirely relatable throughout the novel. This is a love story for the ages!”
